Words cannot express how thankful we are to Margie at OMG Ocdamia Music Group and the musicians she provided for our wedding. Our guests are still raving about the hip hop violinist and how incredibly entertaining and passionate she was. The string duo was fantastic and added a very special and memorable touch to our wedding. Margie is one of the most responsive vendors I have ever worked with and that was a big reason we chose her for our special day. She has processes already in place to organize all of the music and communicate timeline and what you want. She kept me on track and was proactive, and we all know that is a huge relief to a bride planning her wedding. If you invest in one thing for your wedding or event, I highly recommend you invest in a string duo, hip hop violinist, and/or whatever Margie recommends. This was a flawless experience and added the wow factor we were looking for!read more

Justina Jones from Ocdamia Music Group helped make our special day perfect! Justina's beautiful performance of "Canon in D" and "Here Comes the Sun" were absolutely spot-on! Justina was very professional and took the time to meet with us before and talk to us about what we had in mind, and even played a few songs for us. I also appreciate all of Margie's time and help and communication with our ceremony music. I would recommend OMG to everyone. Thank you for making our special day so perfect!

If a picture is worth a thousand words, I would need a series of books to show how amazing Ocdamia is. From my initial conversation down to the final note of the final song, OMG delivered! Everything was business as usual until my wedding was cancelled due to a natural disaster. I thought we would get a refund and move on with the issues of trying to set up another wedding from scratch within a few days. OMG was willing to go further and play longer without a date or venue. I'm glad we chose Ocdamia as one of our vendors for our special day. I can't fathom what would've happened if OMG wasn't there. Thank you so much for the beautiful music, from Queen to Nirvana to Panic at the Disco to Bach, everything was truly amazing! Our appreciationand gratitude extended by anything I could possibly write. Thank you so much!!!read more

Greatest and easy booking process and experience. Margie is readily available to answer questions and the day of the wedding went so smoothly. Will be recommending to sister and friends that have events coming up. Thank you!!

I hired Ocdamia Strings for my daughter's wedding after hearing them over a year ago. They played for an event at my parent's Assisted Living home in 2015, when my parents renewed their vows after 62 years. I told Margie this, and how special it would be to me to have them play for the wedding, and she made sure that Art was there to play since he had been there for my mom and dad. Working with them was a true pleasure. They traveled to San Diego, were set up and ready early, and their music was absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Margie and Art and your talented musicians, for making our daughter's wedding day truly special!read more

Had Ocdamia String Trio at my wedding and it brought the music and atmosphere alive. It was definitely worth every penny. Can't wait to use them again for other events!

Margie and OMG were pleasant to work with, I'm a happy customer! My grandmother recently passed and I wanted to put a personal touch on her services. She loved the guitar and music, we scheduled a solo guitarist. Margie was very helpful and responded back quick to my requests and worked with me regarding the date we had planned. On the day of the services, I could not be any more happier with the outcome! Ben came out, he was dressed very professional, played beautifully! We received many compliments, every song he played on the guitar was marvelous! Thank you Margie and Ben for helping me put a personal beautiful touch to my grandmothers services.read more

I could not have been happier with the service that I received from OMG!! I initially booked another violinist but he unexpectedly canceled a couple months prior to our wedding. I came across Ocdamia Music Group through some FB recommendations and I thank my lucky stars! Margie was stellar in answering all of my questions (and I had a lot LOL) and made sure that it was everything that I had hoped for. Grace was our violinist on the day of and she did an amazing job!! She arrived early, dressed professionally and is so talented!! Our guests loved her music and it sets a beautiful tone on our big day. I highly recommend OMG for any of your needs because they are the real deal and worth every penny!!read more

We absolutely loved everything! Thank you again for working with our friends who sang the duet during our ceremony, and for providing the DJ and photo booth. DJ Larry was a great hit and everyone had so much fun taking pictures!I didn’t get to hear the trio much except during the walk down the aisle but I heard they were lovely as well.You made everything so simple and customer friendly and I also appreciate how available you were for communication!I will highly recommend you and I’m sure we will use your services again for future events.

We hired a string trio from Ocdamia Music Group to play at our October 2018 wedding. Prior to the wedding, our main contact was Margie, who I believe is OMG’s owner. She was very professional and responsive to all our questions and updates. We had the string trio perform songs leading up to the ceremony, for our processional and recessional, and during cocktail hour. As the bride, I didn’t get to hear much of the music except our processional and recessional songs, but what I did hear was wonderful! I was also told by many guests that the trio did a beautiful job! We were able to choose our favorite songs – they have a wide range in their repertoire – and the strings added such a nice touch to our day. Thank you, Ocdamia Strings!read more

My wife and I are so happy that we chose Jackie, the harpist, to play the cocktail hour at our wedding. She is incredibly talented, with a very large musical repertoire, and added so much elegance to our event. I also happen to be a professional musician, with very high standards for music. Margie, the owner, was such a pleasure to work with as well. Trust me, they are the best!

The reviews are all true! I hired Grace as a soloist for my wedding ceremony. OH MY GOD- it was so beautiful! I keep re watching the video and listening to her play All of Me by John Legend as I walked down the aisle. Every other song she played was pure perfection as well. And Ocdamia Music Group was SUPER responsive, which is really helpful. One of the best touches I added to my wedding. Guests gave so many compliments and raved about it.

They made our wedding more special, you make everything right to book them

Ocdamia String Quartet was an incredible touch to our recent corporate event! They helped create the elegance of the evening and were a pleasure to work with. We had several guests comment on how much they enjoyed the presence of OMG! as well.

Ocdamia Music Group helped us realize our wedding vision!! Our solo violinist, Lito, was so wonderful and the music made our intimate ceremony at the Greystone Mansion come together in such a beautiful way! Lito went above and beyond, and it was apparent that he was passionate about music and making people happy. We had chosen pop and rock songs for our processional and recessional songs, etc. for our non-traditional wedding, which Lito played amazingly! He even played additional songs similar to the ones we picked during our family portraits, which he didn’t have to do, but it definitely provided a nice ambiance and was greatly appreciated!Margie, the owner who coordinates everything, was so gracious and very responsive! I highly recommend Ocdamia Music Music Group if you want a smooth and professional process with nice and talented musicians!!read more

It was a pleasure to work with Ocdamia Strings for our wedding. We hired Margie's husband Art to perform as a cellist and he was fantastic! I requested a special song for my walk down the aisle and it was not part of their repertoire so they recorded it just for me and sent me a sample before agreeing to it. It was exactly what I wanted. Margie is great with communication and very professional. I highly recommend Ocdamia Strings for any event!

We hired a number of performers from The Ocdamia Strings for our super formal Titanic/Downton Abbey-inspired wedding last month and were absolutely delighted with them in every respect. Margie Ocdamia, the group's manager, is a dream to work with - highly responsive, flexible, and organized. We hired a string trio to perform prior to and during our ceremony, a pianist and cellist to perform instrumental "piano bar" music during cocktail hour and dinner, and a jazz singer and sax player to cover popular songs during dancing. All of them were phenomenal performers. The jazz singer absolutely blew us away with her voice. During her performance of "All I Want For Christmas Is You" people thought it was the original Mariah Carey track playing because her voice was so spot on.They also accompanied my uncle who performed our first dance song - they were extremely accommodating of his schedule in organizing a live rehearsal at a studio space that was convenient for him and in learning the music to a someone obscure song.Could not have been more pleased that we discovered this group. They were one of the highlights of our wedding.read more

I booked quartet and DJ with The Ocdamia string for a wedding. Was completely satisfied and happy with the experience. Margie helped me from beginning to end. She was profession,thorough, and super easy to work with. Her attention to details truly eased my burdens! Please don’t hesitate, just book them!

Margie and her team were so on top of it! Booking and negotiating we're a breeze. We had some particular requests, and Margie and her team were more than accommodating. She was literally available to answer questions night or day. The music ended up being beautiful and exactly as we imagined. No wonder this team is number 1 in So Cal!

My wife and I booked a violinist for our wedding and it couldn't have gone better. There was a wide selection of songs to choose from, and they were even willing to learn songs that weren't on the list. If you want to give your wedding an extra special touch, I would definitely recommend going with Ocdamia.

We booked a duet; a Saxophonist and a Flutist for an event that was primarily attended by the Indian Community. Acacia and Cole Weber were fantastic. Margie Ocdamia coordinated Indian Music and Top 40 hits to be played. The combination of the duet with background music was incredible! I highly recommend them- they went above and beyond to make it a memorable event for our guests. Thank you!

Brandon was a solo violinist for our wedding. He did a terrific job at our wedding. He played beautifully! If I have another event, I would hire him again in a heartbeat. Margie was so easy and helpful to deal and book stuff with. She made everything easy during the stressful wedding process. I also liked that the response turn around time. It shows true professionalism.

Margie and her team were great! Very easy to work with, and the string trio sounded great. Our guests really liked the music and thought it was an elegant touch for the ceremony and cocktail hour. Also, I liked the website and how easy it was to select which songs for the string trio to play.

I am simply in awe of their amazing work. Ocdamia Strings performed at my wedding three days ago and ALL of my guests were extremely impressed of their work! I have NOT heard one bad review from them. Thank you Margie for making sure everything ran smoothly and for keeping your promise- that everything was going to exceed my expectations, and it definitely did! I HIGHLY recommend everyone to have them perform at their wedding, anniversary, etc. You won't regret it. I promise!

10 stars for Ocdamia Strings!! Margie is a "fast responder" to both Text and email. My wedding guests enjoyed the violin and cello combo that played during my ceremony and cocktail hour at the Bowers. They have a wide variety of selection and even if I have a foreign song, they accommodated my request and learned it. They came early and provided the mic for my officiant. I was too busy with pictorials that I wasn't able to hear everything they played but my guests raved about them all night and have asked to be referred to them. They have competitive rates! I gladly , 100% recommend Ocdamia Strings!!! Thank you Margie and Art! I Look forward to hiring you again on another event !read more

Margie and her team of extremely talented musicians provided the music for our wedding cocktail hour and reception. My wonderful experience with this vendor started off with just one email inquiry and within minutes Margie responded and the in-person meeting was set. Both me and my husband at the time was not too familiar with quartets and Margie patiently walked us through the whole experience including their online booking site. Their library of song list was diverse and we enjoyed every piece that was played by this amazing team! Just watching these musicians play on YouTube will not do them justice. The team of quartet arrived professionally dressed, ahead of schedule and I was warmly greeted by Art on the day of the wedding. As a frantic couple who ran around the whole day preparing for the reception, it was truly soothing to our souls to hear the quartet play! I can't emphasize how much I appreciate this vendors professionalism, extreme talent and friendliness. Thank Ocdamia for being such an important part of our wedding!read more

My wife and I hired Margie and the Ocdamia Strings for our October 1, 2016 wedding at Castle Green. I initially never planned on it but youtubed a song played by a String Quartet and thought, "hey, this sounds great. I wonder if I can have one at my wedding?" So I decided to check out several string quartets on Craigslist. There are a lot, so I basically selected mine based on their youtube channel. They're one of the few that even has examples of their quality, and by far, the one with the most songs on youtube for me to hear...locally. So I called Margie and we went over what they would provide and how much it would cost. They were reasonable and I eventually booked them for 3 hours. They even provided the amplified speakers for free!What I loved about them is they are on top of their emails (always answering me back within the hour!) and that they've been to Castle Green before. So they knew where to sit and play. Super easy to work with and super friendly. They invited me to some of their live showings but I was unable to attend any due to my schedule. They gave me a form to submit for a playlist and an online portal to send it to and to make my payments.Really nothing bad to say about these guys. They're super professional, even came almost an hour early to their specified time. They even learned the Imperial March for me for when the groomsman were suppose to walk down the aisle to...although it was never played because of a miscommunication, they still played a beautiful song for us all to walk down to. No harm, no foul. One gentleman came up to me and apologized for not playing it and even Margie sent an email after to apologize. They take great pride in their work and service.Once they finished the ceremony and moved to the lobby area, they played spectacularly. The guests raved about their quality and songs. I'd suggest picking pop songs as they came out GREAT! My guests loved my selection of music. I was bummed I couldn't enjoy much of their music because I was busy with groom stuff, but I did allow them to record themselves and they will show me when they've finished editing everything.In summary, having Margie and the Ocdamia Strings was a great touch to our wedding and added a classical flare to our venue. It was worth the cost and I wish I could enjoy them in person with my song selection...may have to hire them for our 1 year anniversary just so I could listen to them.read more

Margie is the definition of a true professional who goes above and beyond to make sure you're happy. Her team is such a joy to work with. On time, well dressed and extremely talented. I highly recommend Margie and Ocdamia Strings to any and all that need musicians at their event.

Being a violinist myself at DLSU Chamber Ensemble and having musician friends attend our wedding, we were all in awe of how precise The Ocdamia Strings played each note in the songs that I have requested. I am one happy and very satisfied bride here having choosing The Ocdamia Strings! Margie is super friendly and accommodating that the whole process from choosing the songs, payment options, flexibility in time performance didn't give me any hard time at all! She and the group were very professional, and I would definitely recommend or hire them in our future events! And oh, I forgot to mention that almost all of our guests complimented me and my groom for soothing their senses with the group's performance! They loved every music-from the Eine Kleine, Jesu Joy, to Viva La Vida and Rather Be! Thank you The Ocdamia Strings for making our wedding even more memorable! You're the BEST!!!read more

Ocdamia strings is the right blend of music you want in your wedding, so much class when you hear them play... they have an array of repertoire that all of your visitors will love... They come to you earlier than what you have agreed just to make sure they are set up nicely before your visitors comes... A touch of classic and pop perks up your party with a relax and also dance mood...If you want a music with class and fun, they have it...For me the best string quartet out there...

I hired the Ocadamia Strings Trio for my son's wedding. This trio added a special mood to the wedding that nothing but stringed instruments could create. It was magical. These three musicians define professional art. The music was flawless; the atmosphere was inspiring and the wedding was joyfully sentimental. Thank you for blessing us with your talent. Unparalleled!

At the time of my wedding I paid $749 for a string quartet and $50 for 2 new song arrangements. I say the price I received because they were worth every penny! I was extremely nervous to pay that much, but when I heard their sample performance, my mother and I were teary eyed by the 2nd song! All of my guests could not stop talking about how impressed they were. Margie and her musicians are amazingly easy to deal with! Margie always responses to email lightning fast which is reassuring! They are the one thing that went right at my wedding (I'm not even joking)! Very professional and the quality of their performance is breathtaking. If you can RSVP for their next sample performance, do it. You will not be disappointed!read more

Ocdamia string musicians are truly talented. With their long list of repertoire, they can sure deliver in any type of occasion. We enjoyed listening to them play over and over even before our wedding. Their team are extremely professionals. They responded to our questions very quickly, and was there way ahead of time before our wedding ceremony began. Their music was just lovely, and our guests could not stop complementing them! Thank you Margie and team!

What a great group! Their music is beautiful, romantic, can be soothing to your ears. Glad that I found them for any future event. Wedding in the future!? They will be part of it. Thank you The Ocdamia Strings! Have a Blessed Year 2016.
